LOBSTERS HUNTERS AROUND DAJUMA

LOBSTERS HUNTERS AROUND DAJUMA

/in

Everyday around Dajuma Cape, skilled lobster hunters are using rustic traps crafted from locally sourced bamboo, in the age-old tradition of lobster hunting. Armed with years of experience passed down through generations, they have a deep understanding of the tides, currents, and the behavior of lobsters. They strategically position their traps along the rocky seabed, where lobsters seek refuge in rocky formations. The traps, ingeniously made from bamboo, create pathways that lure lobsters with the promise of shelter. As the night unfolds, the traps begin to yield the fruits of their labor. The rhythmic sound of the waves is accompanied by the excitement of a successful catch, when the hunters carefully retrieve their prized lobsters from the traps. This sustainable and traditional method not only supports the livelihoods of the local community but also underscores the delicate balance between human activity and the preservation of the marine ecosystem. Happy hunting guys!

In Bali, the apple mango season brings a burst of tropical delight typically from November to March. These mangoes, medium to large in size, exhibit a unique round to ovate shape with gently curved ends, setting them apart from regular mango varieties. The apple mangoes in Bali are known for their exquisite taste, a harmonious blend of sweetness and slight tartness, creating a memorable flavor profile.
Unlike regular mangoes, the apple mango stands out with its thinner and smoother skin, giving it a distinct texture and a light, waxy feel. The fruits weigh between 280 to 580 grams, making them ideal for both snacking and culinary creations. As the season unfolds, the vibrant markets of Bali showcase these mangoes at their peak, drawing locals and tourists alike to indulge in the tropical goodness.
